Final answer:

To find the daily amount of dog food you need, divide the fraction 2/4 by 7, will get 1/14 part of the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how much food you have to feed the dog each day, you first need to find the daily fraction of the bag of dog food.

Since you have 2/4 of the bag, you can simplify this fraction to 1/2.

To find the daily amount, divide this fraction by the number of days in a week, which is 7

So the daily amount of dog food you need is:

=> 1/2 ÷ 7

= 1/14 of the bag.
